I flew with Jared last night in northern California at dusk-ish, and it was beautiful.

Cloudy and a bit gloomy down low...

But above the clouds, a new world of beauty! I can't decide which of the next two are better, so I uploaded a bigger version of each, link below each picture. Let me know what you think

And two parting shots...

I love looking out the window here and seeing that sleek little wing Wink

Comments welcome! And before anyone asks, Flight1 Mustang and REX, but please don't move this to Payware...that's not the point

I think I like the first of those two better, nicer angle.

Lovely shots!

From that scenery, it looks rather like the wilds of NORCAL, (Northern California), north of Santa Rosa, on the way to the even wider Oregon.. Shocked

.., and one of the few Cal places that I can get hopelessly (almost!) lost in!
Wild, mountainous territory, with few discernible landmarks!
It certainly is a wild, less populated area, compared to the highly populated SOCAL, with its more noticeable landmarks!

Oregon scares me witless!.. Shocked

...

...!

Paul...FS 2004...with a big gun, and a Bear Trap!... Wink

Good eye

Took off from Ukiah and flew north, eventually landing in Portland.

BFMF..Andrew Esselbach... Wink

I don't know if he's still in the US Army, fighting off various warriors in sandy locations around the World... Smiley

...

...or just sat at home polishing his boots, and occasionally popping into Sim V to see what's going on?... Roll Eyes

...!

But he does pop in now and again...

Paul...mostly fighting off Aliens in Alpha Centauri... Cool
